Detailed Overview

Why NVIDIA GeForce?

The graphics card is the most important component in a gaming laptop. This laptop includes NVIDIA's powerful GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card, ensuring smooth frame rates in every game at high detail settings.

Choosing the Right CPU

A fast CPU ensures a smooth and responsive experience whether you're playing a game, watching videos or browsing the web. This laptop includes a powerful Intel Core i7 7700K which has four cores running at 4GHz so delivers great performance when you need it.

The Right Memory

Fast and reliable system memory is a crucial part of any laptop. The Scan 3XS Carbon Extreme gaming laptops include 16GB of Corsair DDR4. We recommend 16GB of RAM for a high-end gaming laptop.

Lightning Fast Storage

Nobody likes waiting, so the Scan 3XS Carbon Extreme includes an SSD for your games and an HDD for your music and photos. SSDs use sold-state memory, so boot into Windows, load games and applications in a fraction of the time of a mechanical HDD.

Genuine Windows

All 3XS gaming laptops include genuine Windows 10 64-bit, the most modern and up to date operating system for a gaming laptop.

Peace of Mind

3XS Gaming laptops are professionally assembled in our state of the art factory in Bolton and are protected by a two year warranty. In year 1 the warranty is Collect and Return, so we cover all parts plus carriage to and from Scan. In year 2 the warranty is Return to Base, which covers all components except the screen, battery and hard drives.

Immersive VR requires seven times the graphics processing power of traditional 3D apps and games. NVIDIA's unique set of features - such as multi-res shading - mean you get the right level of performance, image quality, and latency to ensure your VR experience is nothing short of amazing.

Gaming Laptops
Date Issued: 16th Oct 2017

Gaming on PCs used to be restricted to desktop computers equipped with a dedicated graphics card connected to a display, much in the same way that a games console works with a TV. Recent advances in technology have enabled manufacturers to equip laptops with increasing levels of graphics power without them being too bulky or heavy.

Though it is undeniable that the sales of PCs have slowed down in the last 10 years, certain segments have bucked this trend and reinvigorated parts of the industry. One such area is high-performance gaming, be it on desktop or laptop, fuelled by console-beating quality and underscored by the PC ecosystem

NVIDIA refreshed its range of graphics cards recently with the introduction of a number of new models for performance desktop PCs. Four new GeForces have been released in quick succession. The Titan X, GTX 1080, GTX 1070 and GTX 1060, all based on the new, efficient Pascal architecture, have set new levels of performance in each segment.
